The '''Steganography Analysis and Research Center (SARC)''' is a Center of Excellence within Backbone Security focused exclusively on steganography research and the development of advanced steganalysis products and services. The SARC has developed state-of-the-art steganography detection and extraction capabilities that address the needs of digital investigation specialists and information technology security personnel in law enforcement, government, military, intelligence, and the private sector. By providing a national repository of steganography application hash values, or fingerprints, and developing the most advanced tools, techniques, and procedures to find and extract hidden information, the SARC is rapidly evolving into a high-value asset to computer forensic examiners who wish to conduct steganalysis on seized media. The SARC has the products and support that can provide you with state-of-the-art solutions and benefits.

Plaso (plaso langar að safna öllu) is the Python based back-end engine used by tools such as log2timeline for automatic creation of a super timelines. The goal of log2timeline (and thus plaso) is to provide a single tool that can parse various log files and forensic artifacts from computers and related systems, such as network equipment to produce a single correlated timeline. This timeline can then be easily analysed by forensic investigators/analysts, speeding up investigations by correlating the vast amount of information found on an average computer system. Plaso is intended to be applied for creating super timelines but also supports creating targeted timelines.

The Plaso project site also provides 4n6time, formerly "l2t_Review", which is a cross-platform forensic tool for timeline creation and review by David Nides.
